By: Gary Thomas

Narrated by: Gary Thomas

Audiobook narrated by Gary Thomas.

What if God designed marriage to make you holy instead of happy? What if your relationship isn't as much about you and your spouse as it is about you and God?

In Sacred Marriage, bestselling author Gary Thomas uncovers the ways that your marriage can become a doorway to a closer walk with God and with each other. Join over one million others who have already uncovered Thomas's tips for fostering a sacred marriage.

Within the pages of Sacred Marriage, Thomas invites you to see how God can use your relationship with your spouse as a discipline and a motivation to love God more and reflect more of the character of his Son.

In addition to life-changing insights from Scripture, church history, and time-tested wisdom from Christian classics, you'll find practical advice and techniques to make your marriage happier by becoming holier husbands and wives.

In Sacred Marriage, Thomas will give you all of the tools you need to:

• Turn marital struggles into spiritual and personal appreciation
• Love your spouse with a stronger sense of purpose
• Confront your weaknesses and sin in order to grow your relationship with God and with your spouse
• Partner in the spiritual growth and character formation of your spouse
• Transform a tired marriage into a relationship filled with awe and respect

Thomas reveals that sacred marriages teach us to love God and others well by fostering a healthy sex life, a strong prayer life, and a rich spiritual life. God uses our marriages to help us grow in character, in prayer, in worship, and in service--we just have to recognize that the purpose of marriage is holiness, not happiness.

Each copy also includes thought-provoking discussion questions designed to spark conversation between couples and small groups, allowing you to dive deeper into the lessons that Thomas shares in Sacred Marriage.

Good

Any additional comments?

Audiobook review: It is nice when authors narrate their own work, and this author does a very nice job. The central idea here, listed on the front of the book, cannot be overstated. The author clearly explains and illustrates the idea in the first half of the book, and once that is done the book trails off into "typical marriage book" themes (in my opinion). Totally worth the read/listen for the first half, though.

so good!!

Brutal as I look into my God Mirror!!! brought me to my knees!!
loved it!!

well worth it.

I recommend this book, if you're thinking of quitting your marriage. I need some much to learn.

beautiful book on marriage

loved it. Great for men and women, really helps both sides perspective on marriage. Powerful.

Very refreshing

This is the first book my wife and I have “completed” in 29 years of marriage! We are planning on doing this again on a future road trip. We cried, we laughed and we grew. Thanks Gary (and Lisa)!

Outstanding!!

Great biblical perspective of marital purpose!
Marriage is to make us holier, not necessarily happier. Holiness should be our pursuit, happiness is icing on the cake.

Masterful!

This book is an essential; a must have even for people like me who haven't began a relationship, but look forward to having one with a solid foundarion.

Life changing by affirming a Christian marriage

Serve God through your marriage by being selfless. Brilliant! I will share this over and over with myself and others.

Thanks

So many wake up challenges. This would have been a great couples study 27 years ago before we got married. It’s still great today. Thank you.

One of the best on marriage!

This is motivating, inspirational, and easy to listen to. I highly recommend this book to every married couple.
